After the system answers a call, it plays the
outgoing message, beeps, then records the caller’s
message. Each incoming message can be up to 1
or 4 minutes long, depending on how you set the
recording time (see “Setting the Record Time” on
Page 28). The maximum recording capacity is
about 16 minutes (or 59 messages).
The system stops recording and resets to answer
the next call when:
• The caller hangs up.
• The maximum message length is reached.
• The system detects a busy signal or more than
7 seconds of silence.
• You pick up the handset or any phone on the
same phone line. ±ý

Recording Incoming
Messages
When the message
memory is full, the caller
hears “Hello, no one is
available to take your call.
Please call again.” The
system cannot record
additional messages until
you delete some of the old
messages (see “Deleting
Messages” on Page 33).
